Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome to the stage::
''Dorian Richard Morgan!!
[/size][/b]Looking back in my childhood
wasn't to bad but it wasn't that great
I carried the luggage like a bag of bricks
feels like it's holding me down again
starring down a pitch black road
painted lines show me the direction
sun is burning on my face
sun is setting me on fire
Nobody told me where to go
Nobody told me where to run
I can't find my way back home
lost my head down there some where
could we just be gone alone
lived in doubt of fear I've shown
gazing down a long grey road
I see the stop sign way ahead
the sun is burning on my face
the sun is setting me on fire
Nobody told me where to go
Nobody told me where to run
Nobody told me where to go
Nobody told me where to run
Nobody told me, Nobody told me
Same old shit different day
gotta get up, gotta get up
wasn't to bad but it wasn't that great

Hold the press!!
Don't go wasting all your applause just yet, save some for Philly. They have been treading the floorboards for exactly 22 years and they have been totally Female!! She has been in the spotlight roughly Since the time Records began!, and they're loving it!!
And now for the good stuff!!
We have a new kid on the block, going by the name of Dorian Richard Morgan, but only their mother calls them that; you can call them Angel! Rumour has it this dude is a totally hoopy frood; so Mum's, lock up your daughters!! They've been cruising the streets of England for 32 years now, after coming into this god forsaken world on April 13th.
Here's the vitals!!
Race:: Elemental - Luce
Special Abilities::
Solidification of light – He uses this ability in two ways at the moment. He creates large wings on his back, this was how this ability first manifested which he uses to fly. They are large and pure white and have the consistency of feathers but if they are struck with metal it will just go right through it and they will be unharmed. He does not feel pain from them either. He also has learnt how to manifest weapons made of light such as a light sword or axe. Thought controlled
Light Shield – Partially inherited from James but has been altered due to his elemental nature. He can only use this on himself and not expand to others. The first stage is to block mental attacks, the shield shimmers around him and is partially visible. The second stage is to block physical attacks, the shield begins to glow with a pure white light similar to his wings. The third stage is where he can turn the energy it has blocked into a concussive blast outwards, shattering the shield in a blinding light that blasts into who ever he is attacking. He will have to build the shield up again after doing this. Thought controlled
Ability Replication – Dorian can replicate any ability which has been used ON him in the past. Not near or around him. These abilities are tied into his emotions and he needs to be calm to call a past ability to the forefront of his mind. Some abilities he had replicated he had strong control over (S), some medium (M) and some are very limited (L). Emotion/Thought Controlled
Abilities replicated
(L) Emotion Nullification – The ability to numb some ones emotional reaction – Dorian barely realises he had this gift but it was used on him for over 12 years by “The Riptide”. It is the main reason he own senses are so dulled but he doesn't know how to activate it on other people.
(L) Empathy – The ability to sense what other people are feeling, used on him by “The Riptide” again. Very limited as as he doesn't feel his own emotions so he doesn't understand or know to use this ability. Other peoples emotions can have a tendency to overwhelm him if he taps into this ability.
(L) Illusion – The ability to create illusions for other people, he cannot create any solid illusion so as soon as it is touched it fades, he cannot mask himself in illusion either. He can create illusions in a room to trick other people and to hide things. He has limited control over this and the illusion will not last without him being in the room.
(M) Lie Detection – The ability to detect lies when spoke directly out loud to him (Lies of omission or non verbal are undetectable, he won't know for sure if someone is hiding something) Dorian has a medium control over this as he cannot turn it off or on, If some one lies to him he instinctively knows, but if some one avoid saying the lie and is evasive it won't trigger this ability.
(M) Life Drain – The ability to sap the life force from some one. Medium control is the best Dorian will EVER achieve with this ability as it is a Scuro ability and is his natural opposite. He can pull peoples life force from them by touch contact ONLY. Dorian Cannot kill some by use of this ability and it is highly unlikely he ever will.
(M) Ability Chargin – The ability to supercharge other peoples abilities. A purple zap leaves his skin and goes into another person giving them a temporary boost in powers. This can only last around 30 minutes but it will make their ability up to 100 times more powerful. He can summon the purple energy to his hands at any point and people can mistake it for electrical control.
(S) Diagnosis – The ability to touch some one and discover what is wrong with them physically. Able to locate broken bones or bleeds with absolute accuracy. Ability gained from “The Riptide” and he has had a lot of practice using it. Ability affiliated with the Acqua tribe but links in with the Luce's innate healing powers.
(S) Healing – The ability to heal other people by touch. He gained this early on with the Luce before his time with “The Riptide” and has excellent control. Especially when coupled with him diagnostic ability he doesn't waster time pouring energy in like man Luce working without an Aqua. He knows where to sent the energy straight away.
(S) Bliss/Terror – The ability to cause feelings of bliss and terror in other people, by touch is strong but he can do this without touching people at over 2 metres away maximum. He got this ability when he as with “The Riptide” and mastered it as he was used to retrieve information from their captives when he was still one of them.
(S) Light Show – The ability to manipulate lights into a gorgeous show, similar to soundless fireworks and a waive of multicoloured lights.
Family:: Family of the Fallen. Morgan – Deceased.
Position in the Family:: Warrior of the highest rank
The physical!!
The hair:: Dark chocolate brown with bronze highlights, few inches long. His hair never really needs styling it just does what ever it wants and Dorian lets it.
The eyes:: Amber coloured, mistake for chocolate brown often
The body:: Slim and very well toned
The style:: Torn jeans and shirts, his wings function better when he doesn't have a shirt although it is not necessary so he favours shirts he can get rid off.
The looks::
Dorian is basically the spitting image on Rikki. If her where still alive Dorian would look like an older brother. As Dorian is an Elemental and not a were he looks as if he in in his 20's where as Rikki would probably look 17 still. He has a tattoo on his right arm with the letters D and M surrounded by angel wings. Dorian is seemingly never clean shaven and always has a bit of a shadow. Dorian could probably pass for a model with a body like his and the amount of sheer effort that has been put into it over his life.
The mental!! – – Pre “Riptide” and After he has met Roxi
The likes:: Family, Cake, Kittens, Swimming, Light, Cookies, Chocolate, Syrup, Sugar, Maths, Books.
The dislikes:: Bullies, feeling trapped, Sour food, Boredom, Boring people
The hopes:: To have a family, To never be caged again, to live his own life rather than what every one wants him to do.
The fears:: Never getting his own life back, Slipping back into having no emotions, loosing control of his absorbed abilities.
The talents:: He is a genius, He can cook better than most 5 star chefs and he is very good with cats.
The bad habits:: Creating miniature small light staffs when he's bored, his wings have a tendency to come out on their own as he has so much raw energy bleeding out of him, half the time he doesn't call them and chew things... pens mostly.
The attitude::
Before he went to the “Riptide” he was a very care free person. He enjoyed spending time with people who he loved, playing with his light show ability, reading and learning. He also loves cats, especially kittens. Since he was rescued from the “Riptide” he hasn't really had much of an attitude, he doesn't really feel or have emotions. If he is left alone he will tend to sit and stare at a wall. He doesn't really get bored any more either. All of this will start to change when he is back around family. He will slowly start to get his personality back etc. Family mean everything in the world to him when he is himself and he is fiercely loyal to anyone who he sees as family.

The history::
Beginnings...
The O'Hara family have never exactly been known for doing things... the easy way. Especially Rikki which considering that his mother was mated to a were cat where as she was a were wolf would give you a hint at the kind of way things go in his life.
Rikki and Tara met when tensions between the Fallen and the Moonlit courts where at a peak, but they had an instantaneous attraction to each other. Rikki felt a pull to her as if she was her mate and Tara felt a deep connection to him aswell. Relations between Elementals and Were's was strictly forbidden so they kept their rendezvous a secret, Rikki wanted to believe that he was her mate as well but Elementals didn't feel the same connection as weres and vampyres did when it came to mating. They had similar issues to them but it was possible for them to have a child and fall in love with people who they where not destined for. It was very difficult yes, but it was possible. It was this that created a bit of a divide between them. Tara wanted to keep hiding, the backlash would not be worth it.
The were courts would never allow him to be with an elemental and she would have been shunned by her family who where the second ruling family of the Luce. A family who was quickly dying out. Tara was under pressure from her parents to marry and produce and heir. Her sister had been pronounced baron by the time she was only 12, a bacterial infection had destroyed her uterous early on. When she reached 24 she had ended her own life, flinging herself of a bridge into a lake where she drowned to death even though she had abilities that could of save her. She let herself die because she felt as if she could not live in a world where she could not have children. Especially as the Morgan family was now so diminished. Their position of second house was in danger. Candence had been Tara's best friend since they where born only 2 minutes apart and Tara never quite got over her death.
Declan had been Tara's younger brother, born a few years after Candence's suicide. He grew up too fast and her parents started pushing him towards marriage almost straight away. Tara could do little but watch as her brother started receding into himself. Tara was the oldest and technically heir but if she where to marry it would be likely that she would talk the name and house of where she went unless she found some one willing to be accepted into the Morgan family. A dying name and a dying house. It was around this time when Declan was slipping away from them all that she met Rikki O'Hara. At first she had ran from him... but he had followed her and when she was sure he was going to kill her, he had given her a flower and proclaimed her the most stunning being in existence.
She had thought he was playing with her, mocking her. Werewolves never stooped to acknowledge elementals let alone go around calling them stunning and what ever. It didn't take long however for Tara to realise he was being sincere. She has flicked her had and drawn all the light from the room and danced it around him in a patterned waive whilst he actually marvelled at her show of power! She was not a fighter, her ability where musical and to put it frank, pretty. She could put shows on and dazzle just about everyone who cared to look so she decided to do it to him a little.
Later that day after they had spent many hours just talking to each other and getting to know every single thing possible to know about each other. They seemed to both need to know everything about the other person and talks of war and courts where long forgotten. At the end of that night was the night they first kiss and it was the beginning to everything.
As hard and fast as they fell for each other their where complications. Rikki wanted to claim her as his mate but Tara wouldn't allow him. The people of the Fallen had a pretty good idea of what would happen in such a situation and he knew it would not be a good move for either of them and they would both likely end up dead. Or worse. Rikki was convinced they would understand, after all his parents had been mixed and they couldn't go against something of strong as denying a mates bond could they? Tara convinced him to wait. All the while she was still under pressure by her parents to become pregnant and continue the family line. To the point they where looking into arranged marriages for both herself and her brother, Declan.
They where hoping to find some one for Tara who would take her name and a young girl for Declan. This had been the last straw for Declan. His entire life he had been hounded to find a mate and now he was to be forced into a loveless marriage just to cement their place with in the Luce high court. The Fallen where supposed to be above this! They where supposed be be about freedom which was was they ruled in the free court yet their family was starting to behave no better than the vampyres. Declan went with the only option he saw available to him – he ran. One night he just disappeared and no one could track him down. The Morgan family where frantic and Tara was sick with worry. She immediately fled to Rikki's arms and he had been outside just waiting for her because he new something was wrong.
Rikki comforted her and for a while made her forget the hell her life had become, Tara told him everything. About the arranged marriages, her sister and her brother. Even her parents and there precarious position in the family of the fallen. Rikki didn't judge, heck he understood as her family where acting a little like some families within the moonlit and the a dark courts. Something which really told Tara how far from the trodden path her family had fallen. Tara declared that she loved Rikki on this night and that she never wanted to be away from him, they took their relationship forward which for Tara was new. Unlike most Elementals she had not adopted the sleep around with everything that moves method and as such it meant a lot to her. Rikki saw it as a sign that she truly was his mate and that Tara was beginning to accept it.
The next morning she had to sneak back into her house, and so started the 3 months of hell. Her family was in pieces with Declan's disappearance and she couldn't get away to see Rikki no matter how hard she tried. She was calling him every chance she got whilst thwarting her parents plans for marriage at every possible chance. 2 Months after Delcan's disappearance his body was found. Drained of blood and cut up It was obvious he had been caught by vampyres early on in his plan to run away and they had kept him. Only returning him when his body was spent. Tara's pain over his death was agonising and it probably drove Rikki mad. Tara knew she was hurting him and knew no good would come from him being affiliated with her family. The vampyres had killed her brother so mercilessly she could see the moonlit court and the wolves doing the same to her.
She told him she would have to leave him, that is was for his own good that she marry another Luce even though she knew she would never love again. Rikki protested for weeks until Tara managed to cut off all contact. Using mages from the Aqua tribe to cut the bond between them. It was agonising for her and nearly killed her. The Aqua had not wanted to do it in her condition, Tara had assumed he had meant that is was obvious that Tara was in love with the wolf. She didn't even come up with the idea that it might be something else he was talking about. When the bond was cut she considered doing what her brother and sister had done. Death seemed like thee best option and now the bond was cut with Rikki he would never know that she had killed herself so he wouldn't blame himself.
The aqua felt her thoughts slipping down that path and grabbed her and tried to snap her out of it. Yelling and screaming at her. Tara couldn't understand why he was so set on her not ending her own life until she actually started listening to him. He was going on about ending your life when you with child is a grave crime her family would pay for? What? With child!? Tara had gone into shock and the Aqua finally caught on to the fact that Tara had had no idea that she had been with child this entire time.
For a moment she thought the best means would be to go to Rikki and tell him she was pregnant but she had just freed him from the life she would drag him into. She could not bring him back in and risk his life all over again. He was far too in love with her to think rationally and she loved him to much to bring him back in. So she did the only thing she could think of. She went home and told her parents that she was pregnant, but the father had been killed by the moon lit court before they had had a chance to announce it to every one. No one looked into it too much because Tara had done what they wanted, she was pregnant and would continue on the line of Morgan. The only thing Tara didn't bank on was the fact that the O'Hara family... never did anything the easy way.
Complications...
Within 10 minutes of Tara telling her family she was pregnant she was whisked off to an Aqua. Not the one who had told her that she was pregnant, he had been a back alley diagnostician and not something the Luce would of approved her of doing. He had been the only person who money could buy his silence and who could break the bond. The second Aqua could feel the remnant of what had been done to her but he held his tongue, knowing that if he said anything it would likely open up old wounds for Tara and cause her stress.
Something so far her pregnancy had been riddled with. The Aqua was very concerned with the high levels of stress she had been going through and she was put of bed rest for the remaining months of her pregnancy. It was going to be a complicated pregnancy from the get go and the doctor wanted to wait until her had Tara alone to tell her exactly why.
It took him 2 weeks to be able to get to the point where he could speak to her with her mother in the other room so they could speak privately. This was when the doctor told her. He knew she had lied and that the other parent was not an Elemental. Tara had started to panic and he got worried again about her stress levels. He had to promise her that he would never tell her parents, even though he knew that brought up complications. It took nearly an hour to quiet her down again and he was running out of time fast. He came out with it, telling her than she had triplets, using his ability in a similar way humans use machines to show people their children. He showed her the three babies, two girls and a baby boy.
Tara was overwhelmed and happy and the doctor didn't want to ruin it for her but he had no choice. He told her how it would be impossible to keep the fathers race a secret any longer and how this pregnancy would not be easy for her. The next few months where going to be far from comfortable and he was unsure she would make it out alive. He was also unsure that all the children would survive. Tara started to panic again asking him why over and over until he just had to come out with it, trying to keep her calm was making her more and more stressed and it was not helping.
She had triplets. But they weren't identical. In fact she had Twins and the third child was different. In the time the doctor was taking Tara had let her mind slip to names for her children, the boy would be Dorian. His father had spoken of having children one day and he had favoured that name. The girls she had had picked our since she had been 10 years old... Diana and Delia. Though the pain of loosing Rikki even though she knew that had been for the best this was her shining light at the end of the tunnel. Again is was shattered.
The baby boy was an Elemental... the girls where both wolves.
When they where born Tara decided she would tell her parents, she was focusing on that so much she almost missed the worse news. Elemental's bodies where not designed to carry children of different species in the way she was. If they had all been wolves she would likely of been fine but with a few minor complications, however with the mix she had she was in for a bit of a bumpy ride. Tara finally had all the information that she needed and still decided not to tell her parents until the children where born.
Tara had to spend her entire pregnancy on bed rest, Triplets where vaguely unheard of in Elementals so her parents didn't question it, they where just pleased the line of her family would be continued. She had multiple complication. On several occasion she went into a false labour. Sometimes triggered by stress, others by the fact her body wanted the children out of her as it wasn't expected.
When the children started kicking Tara's stomach became a myriad of bruises. She kept it hidden from her family but he doctor knew and he was highly concerned for her. The wolf children where immediately stronger than the elemental child and he was worried a kick in his direction could seriously hurt him. On this side his worry was misplaced as the wolf children luckily where only kicking outwards. Tara held her tongue through the pain and hid the bruises as that would be enough to confuse people. Elemental children didn't get their abilities until they where born so they would be as weak as new born humans. They wouldn't be able to hurt her in such a way.
He parents here growing concerned over her pregnancy but put it down the the fact she was carrying triplets instead of singular children like most Elemental women tended to do. She wrote Rikki a letter virtually every day, asking him about his family his sister. Explaining what was going with her pregnancy and generally just discussing everything she could think of. Just like they had used to. She didn't send any of the letters but kept them all in a box under her bed. No one knew of her little secret. Then no one knew that the father of her children was Richard O'Hara of the second house in the moonlit court. Her doctor knew he had been a werewolf but that was as much information he could get out of her, and they only reason he had managed that was because two of her babies where wolves.
The closer it came to her last few weeks of pregnancy the weaker she became and the doctor and her parents where concerned that she would not be able to deliver the children on her own, likely she would have to have the children delivered by a doctor. Not for the first time he began to fear for her life and that of the children. She was already very attached to the babies, she sang to them and spoke to them all individually. She was willing to lay her life down for them as long as they would be safe, Tara however knew she would fight to be there for her children, wanting to give them a perfect life.
Tara however did accept the possibility that maybe, one day she would not be there for her children. So she began writing. She bound the letters she had made for Rikki together and started creating a book for them. On some days she didn't have the energy to write but she was determined to finish what she was doing for her children. They would learn about her easy enough as her parents would likely take on the children and tell them everything about her. Tara's parents however would know nothing of Rikki as she was still yet to tell them about him and knew even if she did? They would not pass down stories of Rikki in the same way Tara would. Tara knew they would blame him for her death.
She wanted to leave her children with stories of Rikki, how he had grown up and how they had met. She and Rikki had shared so many stories her writtings filled pages quicker than she would of imagined. Tara's love for Rikki was blatantly obvious in her writings and any one reading it would know that she had hated the choice she had made to end her relationship with Rikki.
Whilst she was writing about how she had left their father because she knew it was the only way he could go about him life without serious issues in the future, one of those issues possibly being death. She had gotten a lot of the story out before she started coughing, her blood covering a good portion of the page. She stubbornly folded everything away and placed them back in the locked box under her bed before she called the doctor. She was passed her due date by now and she knew they where likely going to have to operate to take thee children out... by the time the doctor arrived she barely had enough energy to keep her head up and her eyes open.
Birth...
The delivery was just as complicated as the pregnancy had been and in the end it came that they had to cut the children from her. She had no where near enough energy to give birth to the children on her own. The twin girls where is server distress and where barely hanging on to life. The elemental boy was by far the strongest of the three children and they managed to get him out first, he didn't cry or scream like most children but instead just look around the room amazed by everything he was seeing. The doctor was momentarily distracted by his awe at everything and knew that this child would be amazing one day. He just knew it innately when he held the child and he could already feel the raw power pumping through the child.
He put him down into the crib that had been made especially for him and turned back to Tara who had gone a deathly pale colour by this point. The healers where struggling to keep her with them so he had to work fast to get to the twins. They where drastically more under developed that the boy had been but the breathed and screamed at first. The Doctor put them into their cribs before he and the healers set to trying to heal Tara.
8 hours later she was still hanging on, refusing to let go and holding on to see her children, this was what gave the healers and the Doctor the energy to save her. They managed it in the end but she was likely going to be weak for several months to come. Just as they had finally gotten Tara stable one of the twins hearts started beating too fast, her heart was under developed and her body couldn't take the strain. No healer had gotten to the point where they could heal underdeveloped children yet, it had been something the Elementals had been working on for years but it was just something they just had not mastered yet. The doctor could do nothing as the child's heart finally gave out.
No one had much of a chance to grieve for the loss of the baby girl however as barely a few seconds after she had died the second girl spotted breathing. Her heart was fine, different from her sister but this time it was her lungs that gave out on her. Her lungs where too under developed and couldn't do their job. They eventually gave out and the baby wasn't getting enough oxygen to her brain. Again they couldn't really do a thing, the second child died and every one glanced to the baby boy still staring at the ceiling as if it contained the wonders of the world. They where waiting for something to happen. For another tragedy to hit. For the boy to slip through their fingers as easily as the two girls had done not moments before.
Dorian however was strong and he held on.
When Tara finally awoke she had been expecting all of her babies to be alive and waiting to see her. Unfortunately they weren't. The Doctor told her about the deaths of her two girls and he saw the energy and the light start to fade from her eyes with the knowledge two of her children had died whilst she had been asleep. She couldn't help but think that if she had been alive there might have been a chance the would of survived. Or maybe even if she had seen a wolf doctor they might of known something to save the children.
Her worried didn't last long however when a baby boy was placed into her arms. His eyes found her quickly and they where a deep amber colour that where a complete and utter spitting image to Rikki's. He had quite a lot of hair already and even that was the same chocolate colour with bronze streaks as Rikki's had been. The child's likeness to Rikki was startling even for her and if she didn't know any better she would say they could have been twins. There where so many similarities there was very little about him that was from Tara and she wouldn't have it any other way. She couldn't have her Rikki with her but she had his son. Dorian grabbed her fingers and Tara knew she would cope through this.
Power...
Even from when he was first born and the doctor first held him he could feel the raw untapped power in the boy. Something which was generally unheard of as Elementals didn't tend to tap into their abilities until they where around 6 years old. Scuro's managed it a little earlier due to the fact they had a large about of untapped power. Dorian's was obvious before he was even a second old. If anyone had thought to look whilst Tara had still been pregnant they probably would of felt it then as well. The Luce showed an interest in him but knew there was little they could do until his abilities showed them selves.
For the first 4 years of his life everything was fine and standard. Dorian was very smarts, her ran before he could crawl and he talked months before people thought it was possible. He was a gifted child and for Tara he was just that. He was a gift to her and he was the light of her life and her only memory of Rikki. She told Dorian stories of her father and showed him the book she had been writing for him and his siblings. Dorian absorbed everything that was put near him, he had a thirst for knowledge and he didn't even notice the amount of people who where waiting for his abilities to come forward.
When he was 4 years old his abilities came forward. His first ability, Light Solidification. It first showed itself as large white wings on his back. They where perfectly white and had a consistency of soft swan feathers. Similar to silk, but fresh at the same time. He ran to show his mother when he was four and he had managed to produce wings already, every one was shocked. Luce Elementals usually don't develop their abilities until age 6 or older.
He was a prodigy through and through.
He had the wings barely a few hours before he learnt how to fly. One of the house nannies had tried to catch him when he had been laughing and evading her. Her hands had struck out to catch him by his wings but they had slipped straight through it like pulling your hands through cold water. The wings where solid for people who had good intentions but for people who wanted to grab him and pin him down they where like liquid. He mastered this ability fast which brought attention to him. The Luce high court showed more than a passing interest in him now, not only waiting for his abilities but also for what he would become. He had more strength that the strongest Luce who was over 800 years old and he was only 4 and he had a long way to go.
After this Tara and Dorian where moved into the Free court. They where looked after and protected from everyone. Dorian wouldn't know school like other elemental children and he would be taught by the best tutors. He spent nearly every minute with his mother and the two of them had a very strong family bond. His tutor once said the Dorian seemed to be able to sense people he was related too and created bonds with them stronger than most elementals ever managed. Tara put it down to his father. Were's where big on family connections and she assumed that her son had inherited it from him.
It was Dorian who knew of the attack on Tara's parents before any one else had. He was 5 years old and he had woken up front a nightmare screaming that his grandparents where in danger. A force of light blasted out around him and shimmered around him in a protective light. Blocking him off from all of the Empaths who could not longer feel his emotions or here his thoughts. He was screaming but the shield was getting brighter and no one could even touch him. Shields themselves where not an unheard of ability, mental shields or Physical shields. Dorian's ability however was doing both perfectly and virtually straight away, his untapped energy inside him feeding the shield with virtually no issue to himself at all.
When Dorian finally managed to calm down he managed to get out that his grandparents where dead. Everyone tried to tell in it was just a nightmare and that his grandparents where perfectly fine and safe but he was having none of it. He knew they where gone. Even though they had moved away from their home and into the courts Dorian had seen his grandparents virtually everyday and as such there was a very strong bond between them. Tara finally gave in and agreed to get the grandparents into the courts. Dorian wanted to go to them, but he wasn't allowed to leave the courts. The Luce royalty wanted to keep him safe and more importantly? Secret.
Tara ran to her parents house, when she got their the building was on fire. Half of the house was collapsing around her and it was obvious that the place had been torched. Her parents where inside and by this point even Tara knew it was true. Her parents where dead and her little boy had had to feel it. At that moment she hatted Rikki for passing this down to her son. Although she knew she wouldn't change it for the world either. She knew that with her bond with Dorian she could help him through this. Tara hoped one day she could reunite Dorian with Rikki and the bond would stretch to his family but she wasn't stupid. The reasons why she had broken up with him all those years ago where just as valid now as they where back then.
When Dorian was 7 he developed his third ability but not with the fan fare of the other two as at first it wasn't noticed. Ability replication. A passive ability to be sure. It was noticed when one day his mother did a usual light show around him, wrapping him in lights as she always did when they played. Around half way through Dorian started copying her hand movements. Tara just assumed he was joining in but when more lights where added to her own and they where flitting around her instead. Not as perfectly crafted as her, but a little more jittery.
Tara was over whelmed that she shared an ability with her son and ran to tell any one who would listen. Although with out her parent that list was getting progressively smaller and smaller. The Doctor who had seen her though her pregnancy was thrilled and ran straight to Dorian. One of his abilities was to sense others, and know what they where and what they could be. It was why he had sense such a power in Dorian when he had been born. He was interested to know what his untapped power would do with the ability that his mother had. On touching him however, Dorian's third ability didn't read as the same light show ability Tara had. It read as a virtually unheard of ability in any circle. Even the Vampyres and the Were's didn't really boast of this ability. It did however make sense when it came down to it, he had so much raw energy and ability that it was the obvious choice.
Ability Replication.
Stories...
By the time he was 10 he was unmatched when it came to his raw power. He wasn't content however. He had many, many stories of a father figure he had never met, he wanted to see him, meet him. He knew that his father had not abandoned him and that he didn't even know he was alive. That didn't however stop him from wanting to meet him. He loved his mother true enough but he wanted his dad. He craved more family to be around and he started pestering his mother about it. Dorian knew that he could not leave the court until he was 16. They pretty much had told him so when he was 5 and could barely understand it.
He was already feeling trapped, he had no friends his age and he wanted to go out and meet people. Dorian wanted to track his dad down as well. His mother placated him, said she would try and get in touch with his after. She did but she knew it would be tricky. Rikki was in the courts and having a bastard elemental child and an ex elemental girlfriend suddenly pop up out of the wood work would not be a very good thing for him. Tara didn't want to ruin his life but he son wanted to meet his father. She knew that Rikki would at least want to meet Dorian. Even though they had not left on very good terms.
It took around a year and Dorian was 11 before she finally found some information about him. It had been tricky because the O'Hara family where no longer the second family of the moon lit court. They where gone, wiped out. Every one from the family had been killed. Tara was grief stricken and blamed herself. If only she had gone to him sooner, he might of met his son before he died. She couldn't bring herself to tell Dorian, it just wasn't something she knew how to bring up.
Tara managed 4 years before Dorian started asking again, wanting answers to questions that hurt her to think of. She told him in the end and she knew that Dorian would blame her for not getting in touch with him sooner. Heck Tara blamed herself.
Dorian can't stand to stay to angry at his mother indefinitely so he turned the anger else where. For the moon lit court. For the people who destroyed his father and his fathers family. All he had was the stories. Dorian was little more than a 15 year old teenage but he hadn't grown up in the same way most teenagers did. He didn't go out and get drunk because he couldn't. What he could do however was train. He became obsessed with getting stronger and more skilled. His power core expanded and he learned new ways on how to use his light solidification ability. His first attempt when when he channelled it into a fighting staff.
He became an expert staff fighting in an alarmingly short time and soon he was mastering every weapon he could think of and there for any weapon he could create.
Freedom...
Age 16 Dorian was freed from the court. He was only to be kept until he was 16 and had a good control of his abilities. They couldn't justify keeping him secret any longer. Within a few seconds of leaving the building the first thing he did was strike up his wings. The span was quite huge now he was fully grown and more than a few peoples eyes where drawn to him. The wings where not a common sight even though all the people watching him where Elementals. Dorian didn't care, he had never managed to fly as much as he had truly wanted to.
His wings stretched like he had cramped his arms even though he couldn't feel pain from them. It felt nice when people touched them like some one touching your hair... and when he stretched them it was like a first morning stretch. With that he took of straight for the sky and flew before he became exhausted. Feeling at piece probably for the first time since he had found out his estranged father was dead. The Luce courts where not please because they knew he would be noticed.
Noticed he was. A terrorist organisation known as “The Riptide” saw him before he embarked on his first flight. They spent the next month finding everything they could about him as possible whilst using members of their group the same age as Dorian to befriend him. Dorian's inexperience with other people made him very naïve when it came to trusting people as friends. The Aqua he met went by the name Denton and became his best friend and confidant.
Dorian told him about everything in his life although he shouldn't have, he just didn't know that people could be untrustworthy as all of his life he had been surrounded by people in the courts who know him and would generally do anything for him. No one had bothered to tell him that people lie.
Denton had been chosen as he had the ability to nullify others emotions. Over the next 3 years Denton started numbing Dorian more and more. Leaving only the anger. Dorian didn't know it was happening to him so he never used his shields against it. He never had a reason not to trust that Denton would do anything that would hurt him. Every thing the other man did was designed to help him, Dorian was lost without his best friend. He was the only man who cared about him as a person and not what he would become one day like the Luce did. His mother loved him but where ever she was the Luce where to, watching and waiting for him to become their perfect warrior or what ever they wanted for him.
Caged...
When Dorian was 19 he vanished from all records. Denton had encouraged him to leave home, he felt nothing when he agreed just that it would be the best course of action. He left home and went with Denton to “The Riptide” where he spent the next 12 years.
They used this time well, he was trained rigorously. It never occurred to his that this was worse than how he had grown up. He was just as caged now as he was then, but this time he didn't feel it. Dorian didn't feel anything at all. He didn't need peoples abilities though on him these days to stop him from feeling. He just didn't. He had picked up this ability, along with Empath from Denton but neither he had a very good grasp on because they centred around emotions and as the years went on he wasn't really equipped to deal with them. Whether they where his or some one else. He was not so much a member of “Riptide” but rather a weapon that they where sculpting into perfection before they unleashed him into the moonlit court to kill everything he could.
They subjected him to abilities of other people, wanting Dorian to have a good amount mastered under his belt before they unleashed him. He already had a healing ability so the Diagnosis ability most Aqua's had was one of the first to pop up. He mastered it quickly with the help of his healing ability. One of the first main ones that they force on him was Lie Detection. He learnt a rather medium control over this as an ability due to the fact he didn't need to have it mastered. He had enough to know when some one spoke if they where lying or if they where telling the truth.
The hardest ability that he had ever had to master was Life Drain. A Scuro ability by nature and the natural opposite to what Dorian was. “Riptide” gave up after 3 years of trying to get him to master this ability as it was just too much of an opposite of his nature. He also learnt how to charge other peoples abilities and how to create minor illusions although he couldn't tell you when. After a while the “Riptide” just became work for him. He barely slept and he trained night and day. He doesn't understand pain, whether its his own or some one else. He used his abilities on people when he was told, his bliss and horror ability coupled with his lie detection made him perfect at information retrieval. Dorian just did as he was told, he was what they wanted him to be and he just forgot all hopes of a normal life.
His mother died of grief when he was with the “Riptide”. The pain of every one she had ever loved in her entire life being taken away from her and being killed had finally got her. When Dorian started switching off emotionally it felt like he had died to Tara. He had been gone for 3 years by this point and Tara was sure he was dead. Tara's heart finally gave out and the last family that Dorian ever had died. His last tie to the world.
The Aqua realise that the Moonlit court are in discussions with the Fallen... at least the were cats where. It was not something that they could risk. They had to move up their plans and use Dorian now. This however was a mistake of their side because as soon as dorian was sighted it got back to the Luce high court. They had found their prize champion and they wanted him back. The only option was war. It was a private war, they kept it silent and hidden from even other elemental. The Luce won.
Returned...
The Luce won the war with the terrorist group and Dorian was rescued. It didn't however take them long to realise that something was wrong with Dorian. He had no loyalty to the fallen terrorist organisation so at first they assumed that he had been held captive against his will. It didn't take them long,nor meeting a few empaths to work out that he just didn't seem to feel. Dorian didn't seem to care about anything. He could sit in one place for hours on end staring at a wall and not seem to get bored or anything.
He didn't complain about anything.
The Luce brought in the Doctor who had delivered him, he had missed Dorian something awful and what with Tara's death he needed to help him. After seeing him for barely a few moments he knew what was wrong. He couldn't feel anything for some reason. That was when he remembered Dorian's family attachments, if anything could save him from what had been done to him it would be family. The problem was, every one was dead.
They did the only thing they could think of and ran his blood, hoping to find maybe a relative of his father seeing he was was still unknown. It was a long shot and they didn't expect much. They certainly where not expecting a Werecat to come up as his only living relative.
The Courts where never very subtle when it came to dropping things on people. As such they sent a letter to Roxanne O'Hara naming her a Guardian of a Dorian Morgan. They where never really big on details. The only possession Dorian took with him was the box with the book his mother had written. The stories of his father and his family, he felt like he had to keep it with him. Dorian didn't complain about being passed over to some one else, he didn't really see a reason why he should...
The rest!!
